The collaboration is a concept that has really hit the sneaker industry hard in the past few years or so and there are a whole lot of people that have really begun to jump on the collaboration bandwagon. Some people might think that their favorite shoe doesn’t need the benefits of a collaboration because it is popular enough already, but that isn’t a totally correct way of thinking because the collaboration is something that can bring out features of your favorite sneaker that you never knew were there. Today we are going to be looking at an example of that in action, this is the new Sole Collector x Nike Air Foamposite One.

This one definitely features an Orlando Magic styled colorway which is only fitting seeing as the front man of the sneaker was Penny Hardaway. We have to say this is one of the better versions of the shoe we have seen in a while.

While Nike is busy creating different player exclusive sneakers using the Hyperdunk 2010 model, Sole Collector is also occupied in designing its own unique pair of Hyperdunks. This is not intended for a specific NBA player but is meant to be cherished by Hyperdunk fanatics. Let us see how this pair is exceptionally different from that of the player exclusives that we have seen so far.

Sole Collector is being classy in its way of doing this Nike Hyperdunk 2010 as black makes up the upper and complemented by neon green that pops from the inside. A bold “S” branding appears on the tongue with blue detailing that coordinated with the sole unit. Sole Collector further customized the shoe by fusing the insole with texts that read, SOLE COLLECTOR FORUMS 10 YEARS 200,000 MEMBERS (for the left shoe) and THANKS TO YOUR HELP (for the right shoe). Truly, with this creation, SC finally found its way in exposing itself and at the same time taking a break while enjoying the fun doing this project.

The production of this Nike Hyperdunk 2010 x Sole Collector will only come in limited quantity.
